Santanico: A Fictional Narrative
As he rose to his feet, a hint of a smirk toyed with the very corners of her berry red lips. Gradually, she began to move her hips again and found herself in sync with the flow of the music. Santanico ran her hands all through her body, moving her hips slow and sensually, almost hypnotizing, all while glancing at Stefan. She made it seem as if she were pointing to him, signaling him to come closer— to come to her, with the same sultry look she had worn all while dancing.

    Stephen Tobolowsky relays what he labels his “first crisis of belief” in his article “The Santa Conspiracy.” This “crisis of belief” occurs when he has a conversation with his six-year- old friend about his own questioning of whether Santa is real. Tobolowsky is struck by the confrontational and profound statement of this friend: “’It is always easier to want to believe in something than to say it never was true.’” Stephen is five years old when he is jolted by this philosophical maxim from his friend, Dwayne, so much so that over fifty years have passed, and this exchange is still pivotal to Stephen.…

    The book The Hero with a Thousand Faces, by Joseph Campbell proposes that all myths are essentially hero-quest stories, each of which rings a unique change on a universal pattern; a pattern he calls the “monomyth.” According to Campbell, the hero’s journey consists of three main moves: departure, initiation, and return. Within each of these categories is a number of stages common to the plots of all hero-quest stories, and can be compared to Daniel Suelo's adventure throughout his life. According to the book The Hero with a Thousand Faces, the first move of the journey is departure which starts with the call to adventure. The call of adventure is how the journey starts and with Daniel Suelo it starts with him leaving the last of his money in a telephone booth and going for the adventure (accepting the call to adventure), so there is no direct indication of a call of adventure but leaving behind the money is probably the closest.…

    This year, my first year in Color Guard and Marching Band, I’ve learned discipline and what it means to be a part of something bigger than me. Working with the other girls on guard, we work as a team to learn our routines and how to stay in sync with our flags which takes a lot of hard work and repetition. During our long, strenuous rehearsals, it is important to stay focused and pay attention to directions. By setting an example for the younger members, I hope to show them what it takes to be successful in what we do, because it cannot be done without a huge amount of commitment and pride to represent West and our Marching Band program.…

    For this discussion I decided to write about Joan Didion’s essay, “The Santa Ana. The author starts off by explaining that there is, “Something uneasy with Los Angeles air in the afternoon.” This immediately grabs my attention as I have been to may states and towns and don’t believe I have ever had the feeling of uneasiness or that something was wrong with the air in a given city. Even when in Buffalo the air does not feel any different other than it is cold. The cloud cover does not help either sometimes you can have some menacing looking gray clouds and no snow and other days you get hit with 12 feet of snow in a day or two. They continue to hold the reader’s attention with the vivid descriptions of the Santa Ana when he talks about trying…
